Following Donald Trump’s impressive victory over Kamala Harris, Americans are preparing for the 45th president to become the 47th.

This time, however, it’s not going to work.

“The future of European competitiveness,” a report by former Italian Prime Minister Mario Draghi published by the European Commission on September 9 “to save the European economy,” has been unanimously welcomed by the European media, as likely to propel the European Union out of the nasty rut it has been in for 20 years.
Let us humbly offer a dissenting opinion: it does not seem that Draghi’s report, even if implemented — which is doubtful — will solve anything on a European macroeconomic scale. The problem seems that Draghi refuses to take leave of the Germano-environmentalist myth of a zero-carbon Europe.
Margaret Atwood has been called prescient — particularly when it comes to her famous 1985 dystopia The Handmaid’s Tale and the recent rollback of reproductive rights in the United States — but the renowned Canadian author says her predictive powers failed her ahead of last week’s U.S. election, which delivered Donald Trump another White House win.
“I searched. I invoked, ‘Oh God, let it be sun.’ But it was darkness all around,” she said to laughter Tuesday night at a forum hosted by the Alberta Teachers’ Association, Calgary Catholic Local 55 and Calgary Public Local 38.

Donald Trump’s left-field Secretary of Defense pick Pete Hegseth is covered in tattoos – and many of them have already proved controversial for the Fox News host.
The veteran who served tours in both Afghanistan and Iraq and is double Bronze Star holder and is a TV top presenter having fronted Fox and Friends since 2017.
Hegseth, who is 44, started adorning his body with tattoos only recently after his father dissuaded him from getting tattoos at a young age.
Toronto is an increasingly divided city, according to a new report, which finds that many people are struggling financially and mentally despite significant economic growth.
The Toronto Foundation’s Vital Signs “Roundup on Growth” report, released Wednesday, paints a picture of a city that is rapidly growing but also leaving many people behind. More Torontonians are feeling financially vulnerable, which is having an impact on their physical and mental health.
Hollywood star Jamie Lee Curtis, who endorsed Kamala Harris’ unsuccessful bid for the White House, is the latest left-wing elite to quit X/Twitter following President-elect Donald Trump’s resounding victory on election day.
